Electric fence chargers such as the one I use to keep my horses in put out short high-voltage pulses with an energy per pulse of about 6 Joules. The peak voltage is 5,000 to 10,000 volts. The shock is quite painful but not deadly. It leaves no mark and does no damage. I know this from direct experience.

NASA's robots are a bit more sophisiticated that that. It's closer to "Go over by the green rock" (not quite there yet, but close).

Interplanetary Overlay Network (ION) software distribution
is an implementation of Delay-Tolerant Networking (DTN)
architecture as described in Internet RFC 4838.
.
This is a suite of communication protocol implementations designed
to support mission operation communications across an end-to-end
interplanetary network, which might include on-board (flight) subnets,
in-situ planetary or lunar networks, proximity links,
deep space links, and terrestrial internets.
.
Included in the ION software distribution are the following packages:
* ici (interplanetary communication infrastructure) a set of libraries
that provide flight-software-compatible support for functions on
which the other packages rely
* bp (bundle protocol), an implementation of the Delay-Tolerant
Networking (DTN) architecture's Bundle Protocol.
* dgr (datagram retransmission), a UDP reliability system that implements
congestion control and is designed for relatively high performance.
* ltp (licklider transmission protocol), a DTN convergence layer for reliable
transmission over links characterized by long or highly variable delay.
* ams - an implementation of the CCSDS Asynchronous Message Service.
* cfdp - a class-1 (Unacknowledged) implementation of the CCSDS File
Delivery Protocol.

However, it should not be made difficult to get to the polls on election day and it especially important that, as far as practical, it should not be harder for some to vote than for others. Thus, elections should be on Sundays and precincts should be small and numerous. No one should have to wait more than ten minutes to vote and, where feasible, polling places should be within walking distance of everyone (not possible out here).
On the other hand, the names of the parties should not be on the ballot. If you can't manage to memorize the name of the person you intend to vote for you have no business voting.

Too many opportunities for fraud. It muddies the transparency of the process.

As an end in itself? No. Elections should be on Sundays, precincts should be small, and any precinct where wait time exceeds about ten minutes at any time during the day should be split. People whose only reason for voting by mail is that they can't be arsed to go to a polling place are not likely to be well enough informed to do anything but introduce noise. The parties want unthinking knee-jerk votes. I don't.
The usual: three elderly ladies at a table in the town hall, our 100 year old ballot box, a voting both, and an electronic voting machine (a new one: the manufacturer of the $6000 original went out of business and the machine could not be used without their support).

Paper, of course. I could have voted "electronically" but I'm not that stupid.

Wait? I suppose if we had delayed until after supper we would have had ten minutes or so to chat with the neighbors.

I don't approve of that other than for extraordinary circumstances where a voter cannot possibly get to the polling place.

Look up "piercing the corporate veil". Not to mention that the FTC can refer the cases to the Justice Department for criminal prosecution (the FTC itself has no criminal authority).
The case has nothing to do with "Congress's control of the borders". It is about the interpretation of "17 USC Â 109 - Limitations on exclusive rights: Effect of transfer of particular copy or phonorecord", specifically the phrase "lawfully made under this title". The plaintiffs contend that the books in question, having been made outside the USA, were not "made under this title" but instead were made under the laws of the nation of manufacture. The defendant maintains that the phrase is merely meant to exclude infringing copies.

This is clear.

So don't use "radius-border" at all. It's just a trivial frill.
You contradict yourself.

Uh huh. And their SLA requires them to pay you what compensation should they lose your data?
...Windows on the smartphone.
You are allowed to do that. It's up to you to come up with a printer capable of doing it, of course.
How is that "abuse"? Why shoudn't people who want a "bloated" version at five times the price not be allowed to have it? "Fully open" means OPEN.
Wrong. It must be on someone else's server and not in your home.
They are expressing their horror at the very thought of people doing things without permission.

They are really more a kind of trademark registration. They deal only with appearance and never with utility.

Statute law trumps common law.
